I cannot give enough praise about this establishment - the food, the accommodations, the land, the workers, the vibe - all superior.  I Was there for a  retreat and only wish it could’ve been much much longer. I was sad to leave this little piece of heaven on earth 🙏 I look forward to returning!

Highly recommend The Crossing at Ghost River. A great venue for a corporate retreat with delicious food, great meeting spaces and lovely, comfortable guest rooms all in a beautiful setting close to Calgary. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional.

The Crossing at Ghost River is a gem in the world of hospitality. I’m not sure where they find their staff, but each and everyone one of them are thoughtful and dedicated to an outstanding experience. I came to Ghost River for a two day work meeting and it speaks volumes that we booked in advance for 2025 to return for our next meeting before we even leaving the venue. They went above and beyond in every aspect of our 16 person group - from food preferences to ensuring accessibility and comfort for our wheelchair user. They ran me printed materials on a moments notice, made sure our beer was cold, and that the snacks were laid out for our impromptu hockey game party. The venue is beautiful, clean, beds comfortable. The air is fresh and wifi is top notch. You haven’t experience a retreat until you’ve been to the Crossing at Ghost River. Do yourself a favor and book a stay.

Yes, yes, yes! Experience of a lifetime at this location! I was greeted by a super friendly lady and she showed me my room + gave me all the info about the resort. The kitchen staff and waiters are top class as well as they were always there to greet me and to provide delicious food and deserts. The room I stayed in was cleaner than in a 5-star hotel in a major city. The beds are super comfortable and there are extra blankets and pillows available if needed. The bathroom was stunning and super clean. There is not one spot on the shower curtains or walls! The resort has access to the river where you can have a campfire or where you can take a dip in the cold water. Lots of space to walk or just to sit among the trees. This resort has a meeting room that can be used for private events. There are two flat screen TVs and a projector screen. There is enough parking and they close the gate at night. This place is a true gem in the area and definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended. This place deserves more than 5 stars! Update: every time I go to this place it gets better and better!

Had the pleasure of attending a corporate retreat at this gem overlooking the deep valley of the Ghost River. The food was exceptionally good (and generously provided), the staff were friendly and helpful without being intrusive, the room was cozy and spacious, the meeting rooms' decor incorporated the beautiful environment. I will hope to find a reason to go back there again!

This is an amazing location. We were here for a marriage retreat and it was a great place to just focus on each other without distractions. The food was great and the service was over the top. Thank you for a great experience.

For our family reunion the Crossing at Ghost River was all that we knew it would be. The staff were so kind and accommodating. They bent over backwards to cater to those of our group with food allergies. The facilities were outstanding and of course, the food was amazing. Having stayed at the Crossing for business meetings, I told my family that we may never eat that well at a family reunion again and they all agreed. Many thanks to the staff for helping make our family reunion such a memorable event!!!

It was an absolute pleasure to host ViTreo Group's strategic planning retreat at the Crossing. The location is remote and beautiful, the service is outstanding, and Carol (our coordinator) made everything seamless from start to finish. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat and very much look forward to an opportunity to return. Thank you Crossing!

Great hotel and retreat. Food is fantastic, it would be a no brainer for anyone to check out for events or visit. I dare say the rooms are perfectly sized, no bad choices for rooms in terms of balancing needs and options for someone staying in. There is a few things to buy and check out. Also having access to the river in a very picturesque way.

The Crossing at Ghost River is the perfect spot for a getaway.  I have been here for meetings but our personal weekend away was just what we needed!   It is peaceful to walk to the river, enjoy a campfire, or relax with a good book.  It is so quiet and the rooms are very comfortable.  The food is absolutely amazing, and the staff are very friendly and accommodating.    Our weekend away was perfect!  It is also a short drive to the mountains if you want to go hiking.  We would definitely recommend the Crossing at Ghost River.

The Crossing is a beautiful location, the scenery is spectacular, etc. etc. blah blah.... you can find that anywhere, really. The Crossing is different and special because of the people who work there. They regularly host retreats for veterans struggling with PTSD, they donate food and time to less privileged people in the local area.... go to the Crossing because the people who work there care about you and want you to be happy. There are not so many good people in the world that you can afford not have more in your life.

We have hosted our Resident Retreat here twice now and continue to receive raving reviews about it being the best retreat venue. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful, there are plenty of activities to bond over, and the FOOD, oh my goodness. We heard numerous times that it was clear the food was home cooked with love and attention, containing plenty of vegetables and non-meat options, and was as nutritious as it was delicious.

We have used the Crossing at Ghost River for several years now for our annual board retreat. Every year our board members come away extremely happy with the location, the venue, the staff and the food. We would actually like to keep this as our own little secret!  Shhhhhh… don't tell anyone else about it!

We facilitated a 3 day Leadership Retreat at Ghost Crossing.  The facility was ideal:  there was space to facilitate sessions, be outdoors for team building activities, have connecting conversations around a campfire, comfortable accommodations, amazing meals and all within a short drive from Calgary.

Just before Christmas, we held our staff retreat at The Crossing at Ghost River. Although it was close to the holidays, they cheerfully accepted our request. The accommodations and meeting space were very comfortable and the food was absolutely excellent! We never had to ask for anything as they anticipated our needs without missing a beat. I would highly recommend this facility for anyone who wishes to organize a personal or work-related event!

It's an absolute pleasure to leave a review for The Crossing at Ghost River. I facilitate a number of client offsite/retreats each year and whenever possible I try to use The Crossing - geography, client requirements and location sometimes play a factor but when I have creative control of a location, I really value The Crossing. Communication and scheduling is simple and easy. It's shocking how many other venues make this difficult. The staff are beyond accommodating. If you've ever been to the venue then you know you're staying at a ranch house. The setting is very intimate, and the staff seems to have this sixth sense that allows them to make everyone feel at ease and get down to work. The Venue has everything I really need from spacious and comfortable rooms (great sleep), an accommodating meeting room with all the necessary A/V, to a games room and wood burning fireplace. The location is ideal for what I need - away from the business of our day to day lives yet only an hours drive from the west side of Calgary, and an abundance of nature with room to stretch and play. The food... some of the best I've ever had... they can accommodate every food and allergy situation that I've ever come across. Price - no issues. A sale is the result of value created, and The Crossing brings value in spades.

We recently hosted a corporate retreat at the Crossing and from start to finish it was exceptional!  As the venue only has 27 sleeping rooms we were able to fully book the space and it was a very cool experience to be the only guests on site.  The staff was very accommodating and worked with us on all of our event needs.  The food was exceptional and the chef did an excellent job of accommodating our guests with special dietary needs. Our employees have raved about this event and said it was one of the best we have ever hosted - we would definitely return for a 2nd event!

Our team had a great time at the Crossing. Though we did not book it exclusively for ourselves, we were between two weddings without any other groups meeting. We did not choose our own menu but went with the chef's choice. The food was INCREDIBLE. The setting was lovely, even in the rain. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we would definitely consider using the Crossing again.

I’ve attended several corporate management retreats at the Crossing at Ghost River. It’s the perfect venue if you’re looking to isolate your group from everyday work distractions. Their site is easy to access but feels remote as your surrounded by the natural beauty of the foothills of Alberta. Cost wise it’s comparable to any hotel but the food, service, and uniqueness of the site far exceed what any hotel can provide.

This is the perfect leadership retreat location.  I've hosted many leadership and executive teams at The Crossing and every time is just as consistent and spectacular as the last.  The location is ideal for a retreat being out in nature without the distraction of a busy bigger hotel.  Often we are the only guests on site or one other group.  The staff provide customized service and will do anything they can to ensure your stay is comfortable. A special word has to be said about the food.  Doug and Prasad's cooking and baking are amazing.  The only down side is that that food is so good many of my guests end up over eating during their stay!  The Crossing caters to any and all dietary restrictions and no one feels like they have received the "special" meal that is less than anyone elses.  They are experts in vegan, gluten free, dairy free, paleo, celiac, allergy, you name it they will ensure you are well cared for and have the most amazing dining experience. Be sure to talk a walk on the property to the river to enjoy all the Crossing has to offer.  In good weather, ask the team to build you a bonfire in the outside fire pit or to start the fireplace indoors on cold days. For overnight retreats, there is a fabulous games room with darts, ping pong and billards.  We usually do a games night round robin tournamet followed with a game of pictionary. Host a retreat here and you'll be coming back again and again.

I hosted an event for 25 women at the Ghost River.  It was a wonderful experience.  From the excellent and responsive coordination efforts of Carol Pegg to the incredible food, it was consistently high quality.  We loved the facilities, grounds, and accommodations.  It's a perfect place for a small corporate retreat or extended family social event ...just far enough from the city to feel remote and peaceful, but only a 45 min drive from Calgary on paved and maintained road even in snowy conditions. I highly recommend it, but I also want to keep it a secret so that I dont have competition for dates when I want to book our next event!

My company came to the Crossing for a working retreat. As the organizer, I can say that this establishment was fantastic. They were easy to work with ahead of the event, and wonderful during our stay. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms are cozy and quiet, and the food is out of this world. We will definitely be back in the future!

HPEC would highly recommend the Crossing at Ghost River as a venue for meetings.  We have hosted out Annual Strategic Planning Retreat at the Crossing at Ghost River for multiple years and found the staff to be a pleasure to work.  In the months leading up to our events the staff communicated regularly and worked with our council to meet any unique needs we had.  The flexibility, facilities, food and hospitality of the staff exceeded out expectations.

I facilitated a retreat at The Crossing on August 19th and everything from the food to space to service was exceptional. Leading up to the retreat, I worked closely with Carol to finalize the agenda, menu and overall flow of the day. Carol was easy to work with, accommodating, and supported me on the day. The food was OUTSTANDING and all my participants were delighted with the day. Thank you to The Crossing for making our day so special and carefree. We will be back!

I was planning an offsite event for the Hyatt Regency Calgary Leadership team, and was looking for a venue to do a unique team building event focused on networking and connection. The Crossing turned out to be the perfect venue for our February team building. The meeting space worked very well for our needs as it has flexibility to be meeting space or casual living room style for better networking. Outdoor winter activities included a scavenger hunt, snowshoeing and even making s’mores on the huge open fire pit was a hit! Guest rooms were quiet and well appointed. All of our meals were absolutely outstanding and the team accommodated our special dietary requests with ease. Without a doubt I will be working again soon with the amazing team at The Crossing.

The Crossing at Ghost River has been the University of Calgary, Department of Respiratory's annual retreat for at least 4 years and we have a standing reservation with them every March for the weekend.   The staff knows what we need and are very accommodating, food and accommodations are consistently very good  and all the planning and preparation can be left up to the staff with the knowledge that everything will be handled competently and professionally.  The only drawback is the location is a long way from anywhere else, and bringing family members can be an issue as there is nothing for them to do while the members are in their meetings.  We will continue to use this beautiful venue for our retreats.

We booked our first Only Women's Retreat here and we plan on coming back and actually already have our weekend booked for 2018. That's how amazing it is here! If you need a venue for anything, even a family function this is it!! The grounds are impeccable, the food is amazing!! Staff and rooms are top notch. There is nothing bad I can say about this place. We had some ladies that were vegan's or had allergies and the chef stood out with the food and let the girls know exactly what they could eat.  I asked them if they ever felt hungry over the weekend and their response was NO!! So everyone ate well and we enjoyed. I can't wait for next year to come!

The rooms are clean and the grounds and buildings are well maintained. I will definitely have more events here.
